🎙️ Workshop
How to build Tiny agents in JS by Tyson Kuthur Thomas
Demystify AI agents by building them yourself! This hands-on workshop takes you inside the "black box" of AI agents, teaching you how they think, why prompts matter, and how to give them real-world capabilities through tools.
Starting with a simple agent and progressing to sophisticated deep research agents, you'll gain practical experience building intelligent applications that can reason, use tools, and work together to solve complex problems.
You'll understand:
How agents think: The inner workings and architecture of AI agents
Why prompts matter: Crafting effective prompts for agent behavior
Tool integration: Building tools that let agents interact with the real world
Web deployment: Running agents directly in browsers for privacy and offline use
